I usually go for a big order every other week, although lately it seems to be every week. We often make a few smaller runs during the week though.

I try to shop a big trip every other week and a smaller one on the opposite weeks. We plan our meals two weeks out and shop accordingly. Pregnancy is really bad for this plan because I never want to eat what I have planned for that day

We grocery shop once a week but lately I've had major preggo brain and always forgot something or maybe two or three of four things so I have to stop by and pick that up. I even plan out our menu for the week and make a grocery list and still forget stuff. Weekends are always up in the air. We usually go out to eat and go to the inlaws on the weekends and if we don't end up doing that I have to stop by the store to pick something up for dinner but that's rare.

I do a big run once a week, but it seems like I go every other day to get fresh fruit and veggies.

Once a week...I've gotten where I hate grocery shopping though. I should do the meal plan thing, that would make things easier I think.

Usually every other week I do a BIG trip... the rest of the time I just stop by there and pick up what we need... And usually when DH wants/needs something!

We do one "big run" every week, when we plan out a few meals. We do a lot of little runs during the week though too, for things that run out earlier than planned, like oj, bread, etc.

Almost every day

We live in a 4th floor walk-up, so big loads of groceries are not really the thing to do. But since the store is a block away, I hit it almost every day on my way home and get just what I need for the next day.

We go once a week and usually its the only trip we make. If we forget something we will just wait until next week. I would like to get us to go every 2 weeks but DH likes going every week.

Usually every day or two. With no car, we can usually only bring home two nights worth of dinners.

Once every couple weeks and then we pick up stuff between the big shopping trips.

Before it seemed to be about one big one, once a week. But now it seems like a big trip every two weeks and about two small ones in between for basics.

Every two weeks we do a big shopping trip. Then in between we go for random things.
